  1. If they even say one more time that "we need to find the override before the rest of these reactors go critical" I dont know if i can watch this show anymore. This is over the top. Granted I work with this stuff, but every single reactor in this country that is producing power is currently "critical" This is a VERY good state, and the preferred state , for a reactor to be in. Its obvious they did absolutly no research on the topic of nuclear power before producing this show.
  2. I like your idea because its the defensive side of the ball that is broken and needs fixing.
  3. Forget bettis....ward woudl be awsome! (wouldnt mind bettis either)
  4. I swear i saw it say espnHD...but i have a 8 year old 27" sony...so it dont much matter to me
  5. I agree with you, which is why i said the best thing to do FINANCIALLY was to release him last year....
  6. Did he dance after he missed the tackle?
  7. If we do this, cutting drew and signing Johnson is a cap wash. Just keep drew as a backup already
  8. In hindsight the best thing to do (financially) would have been to cut drew last year and go with JP. But JP was hurt and then would have been rushed back, while Shane matthews was playing. We would have been nowhere near 9-7 last year, and would have just given up a top 10-15 pick (or higher) for Losman and everyone would be complaining about that. While the way TD handled drew was not the best as far as cap management goes, he absolutley needed to do what he did. I personally say keep him one more year as a backup and cut him next year. I dont see the cap savings by cutting him, when we would have to sign a backup to replace him.
  9. If I was a team (dallas) who wanted drew, I would offer up a 5th or 6th round pick for him. Here is why: By trading for him, he comes free and clear of any bonuses. Lets face it, drew is not the quarterback he once was, and he is questionable to ever regain that form. With no bonus, his new team can cut him at any time and it will have ZERO cap ramifications. If he signs as a FA after being cut by the bills, there will inevitably be a signing bonus, and a large cap hit if he is released before the end of his contract. So bottom line, the draft pick given up in a trade for drew would be an insurance policy against drew sucking it up and having to be cut. a 6th round pick is a small price to pay for several million in potential dead cap space. It should be noted that it makes no difference on the bills cap whether he is traded or released.
  10. Hmm...a 5'2" 120lb DB nicknamed "Sumo"... Hope the pats sign her! Damn this team is scary
  11. Hmm...Maybe Corey Moore?
  12. Umm...Carolina, Calgary, Tampa Bay, Anaheim. That list includes 4 of the 6 stanly cup finals teams in the last 3 years (Detroit and New Jersey being the other 2).
  13. EASILLY Chris Watson. Honorable Mention: Eddie Robinson Rob Johnson Erik Flowers Charlie Rogers Rian Lindell Jason Gildon (yes it was only a week, but it was a pretty intense week of hate)
  14. Prolly shoulda went elsewhere. I wouldnt even have stopped. Where off granby was it? (im heading down to granby tonight)
  15. actually, its probably better for a team to trade for him. They get him free of any bonuses (like we did when we got him), and can cut him at any time and recieve ZERO cap hit.
  16. Frogs cant feel heat. ever see a frog jump into a fire? http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?BoiledFrogs Sorry...couldnt resist... I get your point.
  17. Actually, I dont know that the Bus would be a bad pickup, provided that he understands he is the backup/3rd down back, which i feel is probably what he wants anyway. He is a good character guy, and I wouldnt mind one bit having one guy who we KNOW can get us 1 yard every time on third or fourth and one.
  18. dumb, yes...Dumbest quote...no. I believe that belongs to spreewell talking about not being able to feed his family.
  19. I just dont see drew getting cut. Cutting him saves 2 mil on the cap. It will cost us 2 mil for an adequate backup. I would rather have drew than charlie batch or almost anyone who has been tossed around these boards, and no im not a drew supporter. I think, if handled well by the coaching staff, we have a good situation at QB going into next year. JP can start and drew can come in when he gets in trouble. Tag-team it for a year and then move on with drew. BTW, does anyone know what drews numbers look like for 06? We should use this cap space to lock up nate and/or mcgee. Say what you want to about keeping lindell because of the cap, but with a competent kicker we would have been in the playoffs. Its worth the 600k in dead cap space IMO. I see no way prileau is back. Let JJ walk, resign Pat and make a move for (and sign) a big time OT and a Kicker. Draft a RB LB OL and S for depth. BTW, what happened to tim anderson?
  20. He Lives in VERMONT! You have to smoke up immediatly after you cross the border. its a law. And as far as mismanaging funds, he could put every tax dollar paid in vermont last year into his own pocket and still couldnt afford a new suit.
  21. Individually, the pats are dominated by about 10-15 other teams in the league. But that doesnt matter. Its not a slap at the patriots either. They have heart, dedication, willpower, coaching and play as a team. Every other team in the league is trying to find ways to manipulate the cap. The patriots have done it with coaching and building a coheisive team that performs spectacularly. Who knows how much crenell and weis leaving will affect this team. I suspect more than we will ever know. It might very well be that the pats have a nucleus of players in NE who will carry the torch for the new coaches, but I wouldnt be suprised either way. BB is running the show, and I for one will never again second guess one of his decisions. and for the record...the patriots can kiss my a$$
  22. Bruschi AND Sam Adams...any free agents have the initials PBR?
  23. Agreed...and why dont they ever take Jack out? Hmm... And this plot is really getting to me. You cant tell me they cant shut down every single one of those reactors locally.
  24. I agree with you in principle. However, you and I might be smart enough to put away 6% of our salaries away for retirement, but joe and suzie down the street are not. Ordinarily I would say, screw em, they could have done the same, but then it all boils down to the plethora of other social programs our taxes go to to bail them out. Privitization is kinda the middle road, where you are forced to invest in your retirement so that others dont have to bail you out (as often...)
  25. I'll bet he did.... Was Piazza around at the time?
